We propose an ultra-broadband super light absorber by integrating different-sized tapered hyperbolic metamaterial (HMM) waveguides, each of which has a different and wide absorption band due to broadband slow-light response, into a unit cell. We numerically demonstrate that such an absorber is superior to a single-siz…
We report large negative electron affinity (NEA) on diamond (100) using magnesium adsorption on a previously oxygen-terminated surface. The measured NEA is up to $(\ensuremath{-}2.01\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.05)$ eV, the largest reported negative electron affinity to date. Despite the expected close relationship b…
A series of Ce 3+, Tb 3+ codoped and Ce 3+, Tb 3+, Eu 3+ tridoped KBaY(BO 3 ) 2 (KBYB) phosphors are synthesized by the solid-state method. The codoped and tridoped phosphors absorb near-ultraviolet (NUV) light through 4f–5d transitions of Ce 3+, followed by blue emissions of Ce 3+ along with sensitized Tb 3+ green an…
Epitaxy is widely employed to create highly oriented crystalline films. A less appreciated, but nonetheless powerful means of creating such films is via topotactic transformation, in which a chemical reaction transforms a single crystal of one phase into a single crystal of a different phase, which inherits its orient…
Photoinduced reduction of absorption (photobleaching) in bismuth-doped germanosilicate fibers irradiated with 532-nm laser has been observed for the first time. It was demonstrated that bismuth-related active centers having the absorption bands at wavelengths of 1400 and 1700 nm degrade under photoexcitation at 532 nm…
Zirconia-toughened alumina (ZTA) using yttria-stabilised zirconia is a good option for ceramic-ceramic bearing couples for hip joint replacement. Gelcasting is a colloidal processing technique capable of producing complex products with a range of dimensions and materials by a relatively low-cost production process. Us…
Abstract. Diatoms (Bacillariophyta) are one of the most common and diverse algal groups (ca. 200 000 species, ≈ 10–200 μm, unicellular, eukaryotic). Here we investigate the potential of aerial diatoms (i.e. diatoms nearly exclusively occurring outside water bodies, in wet, moist or temporarily dry places) to infer sur…
In this research, effects of beeswax (BW) on functional properties of whey protein concentrates (WPC):pullulan (PUL) films were investigated. For this purpose, 0, 10, 20 and 30w/w(glycerol)% BW rates and 30:70, 50:50 and 70:30w/w% WPC:PUL ratios were applied. Films containing 70% WPC:30% PUL (WPC70) and 30% BW (BW30)…
Abstract This work studies the modification of commercially available dispersions of intrinsically conductive polymer PEDOT:PSS with a strong base, KOH. It is concluded that addition of base derives a dedoping of the PEDOT chain and increase Seebeck coefficient from 15 µV/K to 90 µV/K. Supportive UV-Vis-NIR spectrosco…
Metamaterials have introduced a whole new world of unusual materials with functionalities that cannot be attained in naturally occurring material systems by mimicking and controlling the natural phenomena at subwavelength scales. However, the inherent absorption losses pose a fundamental challenge to the most fascinat…
Properties of a porous material such as concrete are strongly dependent on its pore structure features. This study deals with developing an understanding of the material structure-compressive response relationships in concrete under high strain rates. Concrete specimens with different pore structures were proportioned…

Empirical correlations between characteristic (1)H NMR shifts in Pt(II) hydrides with trans ligand influence series, Pt-H distances, and (195)Pt shifts are analyzed at various levels of including relativistic effects into density-functional calculations. A close examination of the trans ligand effects on hydride NMR s…
The aim of this work was to study the properties of films based on PLA/PBAT blend prepared by the reactive compounding. PLA/PBAT blends were prepared at the weight ratio of 80:20 together with peroxide as a reactive agent in a twin screw extruder with temperature profile of 160/170/180/210/220/190/175/150°C from feed…
The emissive properties of both doped and nondoped graphene quantum dots (GQDs) with sizes ranging from 3 to 11 nm were analyzed at the single particle level. Both doped and nondoped GQDs are a composite of particles exhibiting green, red, or NIR fluorescence on excitation at 488, 561, and 640 nm, respectively. Nitrog…
In this paper, we demonstrate an active control of the charge state of a single nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centre by using in-plane Schottky-diode geometries with aluminium on hydrogen-terminated diamond surface. A switching between NV(+), NV(0) and NV(-) can be performed with the Al-gates which apply electric fields in th…
We demonstrate ionic liquid (IL) gating of suspended few-layer MoS2 transistors, where ions can accumulate on both exposed surfaces. Upon application of IL, all free-standing samples consistently display more significant improvement in conductance than substrate-supported devices. The measured IL gate coupling efficie…
Although surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy has traditionally been used as an in vitro analytic tool, in the past few years the first reports of the feasibility of in vivo imaging of cancer with biocompatible SERS probes have emerged. SERS imaging has great potential in the field of medical imaging…
Stem cells and scaffolds play a very important role in tissue engineering. Here, we isolated synovium-derived mesenchymal stem cells (SMSCs) from synovial membrane tissue and characterized stem-cell properties. Gelatin nanoparticles (NP) were prepared using a two-step desolvation method and then pre-mixed into differe…
Nanotechnology is a rapidly expanding and highly promising new technology with many different fields of application. Consequently, the investigation of engineered nanoparticles in biological systems is steadily increasing. Questions about the safety of such engineered nanoparticles are very important and the most crit…
